You already had a valid (if somewhat odd) umask set, you didn't have to
convert it to the numeric value. "umask u=rwx,g=rwx,o=r" is a valid

"man 1 umask" should get you info also.
You may need to follow up with "man 2 umask" and/or "man 3 umask".

Hi.
found the info I needed to get it correct

0 – read, write and execute
1 – read and write
2 – read and execute
3 – read only
4 – write and execute
5 – write only

Hi.
I have a hack that sets the usmak for users in /etc/bashrc
umask -S u=rwx,g=rwx,o=r
The problem with this is that at logon it echo's "u=rwx,g=rwx,o=r"
out. This breaks things like scp . What is the correct umask . I have
read a number of doc's on this and still can't seem to get it correct.
